MELODY cover image
Beautifully executed short animation college student film that touches your heart and reminds you of the connectedness between parents and their children. A father, out of loneliness, sings his daughter into existence, but as she grows older, her curiosity leads her to a dangerous new voice. This animated college student short takes a look at the loneliness of a young man who invents his own daughter by singing her into existence. The animation is well done; the background music is subtle and appropriate. I love the images of the man and his baby girl. We watch her growing up and the interaction with her dad changes as she wants to explore a wider world. The dad longs for her to remain the infant in arms that she once was, but she is discovering her new voice and new self. The film's message is about creating our own reality and learning to grow and change with it. I give Melody 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
